Judge blasts Google over ‘destroyed’ evidence as another DOJ antitrust case looms: ‘Clear abuse of privilege’

[not2easy]

That article is a little confusing since it refers to a previous hearing last June with a different judge, Judge Amit Mehta:

While Mehta declined to sanction Google for misconduct related to the destroyed records during the online search trial, he referred to the company’s handling of evidence as “negligent.”

During the trial, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said he has since taken action to end the auto-erase policy.

US District Judge Leonie Brinkema will be hearing the Google case starting September 9th.
